      It’s only grosser because of the sexual context, I think. Just straight bacteria, crud, detritus, et cetera, naval grosses me out way more.

      All that said, I have gargled balls before (and enjoyed it), so probably not the most objective.

      Then again, I’ve also done naval and body shots off bartenders, so… 🤷‍♂️

      I dunno, honestly, I clean both daily and yet it’s my navel that gets linty and full of chunks of dead skin far faster, can’t imagine it’s any less sweaty, either

      Then again I shave my balls with a straight razor every day like a real man (this is actually the test to prove manhood, sorry anyone who doesn’t, I didn’t make the rules) so maybe I’m picturing less gross balls because of that

        My girlfriend is an aesthetician and waxes my boys on a regular semi-weekly schedule. Always perfect, no nicks. Still painful to achieve maximum manliness, but smoother and lasts longer. Look at what you have to do to achieve a fraction of my power.

          Please god tell me she uses the modern wax stuff that’s significantly less painful. I’ve done the older tape stuff that just rips it all out at the end on my arm and I’m almost certain that shit would cause actual damage down there, but my wife recently had her aesthetician-in-training sister practice the new wax stuff and I was amazed at how gentle that was by comparison

          Also, can’t help but imagine everyone who is an aesthetician by trade as Jandelaine from FFXIV:

            Its definitely the less painful stuff lol. And even then there can be moments where I worry my scrote may tear away from my body lmao. But there’s never any damage
